"I want to so badly find the dream that is made just for me… to be just like everyone else… who has dreams and goals yet I can't because I don't have one… I don't know what I really want… I'm just so scared… scared that I'll never find the thing I want to really do… to be left behind… to be a burden for my family…"
"I'm just so scared Sae… I can't exactly share this with just anyone because they too have struggles of their own. Living this comfortable life of mine compared to others who have it rough stops me from sharing more than necessary…"
"But I just don't know what to do… I just… feel so lost…"
The song continued to play its sad melody at the background. She then cried harder as she hugged her knees once more burying her head on top her legs. Sae neared her and patted her head in comfort as he sat crossed leg a few inches away from her. This gesture made her cry harder.
♪ Because,
No matter how much I want to run away
Wishing so hard that I could fly away
It can't possibly be done
I can't simply run.
So many responsibilities I must do
Obligation I have for my family and myself too. ♪
With the ending of the song as well as a few more minutes passing by and after making sure she had calmed down he stopped patting her head and stood up. She wiped the tears from her face staining her dress but not minding it one bit.
She then looked up and stared at Sae. Sae smiled gently at her and offered his hand to aid her to stand up.
She shyly placed her hand on his and Sae helped her to stand up. She then patted and fix her clothes while patting the dust away she shuffled her feet in embarrassment turning her face into bright red. Her eyes were only a bit red and puffy and she was slightly sniffling.
Seeing her this way, he could not help but think she was really cute. When she was sure she was alright, she handed the handkerchief back to him and thank him in a bit of a stuffy voice.
"It's alright! You need it more than I do." Sae said smiling slightly
He said it teasingly which made her blushed even more. He turned his head away before he does anything ungentle man-like.
"What's wrong with me? Am I turning to a pervert?" Seeing her act this way, he wanted to stroke her face and even bit that bright red delicious cheeks of her.
"Lu, it's late. Why don't I bring you home?" Sae had asked
Before Lubenica could answer, her phone started to ring.
"Yes? Uhuh…"
Sae patiently waited for Lubenica to finish her conversation.
"Alright, I got it. See you in a while." She said as she hung up the phone,
She initially wanted to go home on her own being to embarrassed to be in his presence but she was more afraid of her mom's anger and nagging than her feeling of embarrassment so despite her this, she accepted Sae's offer.
